Summary
instructions
and
information
- Water-Year Summary reports summarize a year of hydrologic data in a printer-friendly format.
- For water years 2014 onward, choose a water year and parameter and an on-demand Water-Year Summary report will be generated.
- For water years 2006 through 2013, choose a water year and an Annual Water Data Report will be provided.
- For water years 2005 and earlier, Annual Water Data Reports may be available in digital format.
- Not all sites have reports available for every water year.

REVISIONS HISTORY - WSP 1919: 1951, 1954, 1956, 1960. WDR NE-94-1: Drainage area.
SURFACE-WATER RECORDS
PERIOD OF RECORD - October 1931 to current year. Monthly discharge only for some periods, published in WSP 1310.
GAGE - Water-stage recorder with satellite telemetry. Datum of gage is 3,272.22 ft above North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). See WSP 1919 for history of changes prior to Sept. 29, 1964. Sept. 29, 1964 to Apr. 25, 1982, on left bank 57 ft downstream from bridge at 3,250.98 ft above National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29) and at river mile 1.8; Apr. 26, 1982 to June 6, 2018, right bank at downstream side of bridge at 3,250.98 ft above NGVD29 and at river mile 1.9; June 7, 2018 to present, right bank at downstream side of bridge at present datum and at river mile 4.5.
REMARKS - Accuracy of records for water years prior to 2014 are noted in the individual Annual Data Reports for those water years. For water years 2014 onward, records fair except for estimated daily discharges, which are poor, unless otherwise noted. Natural flow affected by groundwater withdrawals and diversions for irrigation of about 1,500 acres in Colorado and by return flow from Haigler Canal.
EXTREMES FOR PERIOD OF RECORD - Maximum discharge, 50,000 ft³/s, May 31, 1935, from rating curve extended above 3,800 ft³/s on basis of slope-area measurement, gage height, 22.10 ft, site and datum then in use.
